Vancouver Photographer - Intrigue

Ahhh, Valentine's Day! The day to slow down, relax and focus on a softer, more intimate part of your life. Being a mom is not easy (neither is being a dad!) and many couples get lost in the day to day duties of being a parent, forgetting to take the time to just talk to each other. You know, the way you used to talk before you started worrying about the shopping list, who's turn it is to do the dishes, or which preschool will give your baby the best chance to get ahead in school.

Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to remind yourselves that you're not just parents. I challenge you to turn off your computer this evening. Forget about checking your phone, or what's on TV. Don't talk about your kids, or work, or chores. Just talk about you, what you like about each other, what things you like to do together, perhaps share a secret ;-)

I believe a little bit of time together, really communicating, means a lot more than a trinket or flowers. Don't forget the power of a compliment. Believe it or not, men often feel insecure about how they look too, so Ladies, tell your men how dashing they look. And when your husband tells you that you're beautiful, believe him! You may not notice it, but he sees all the intriguing things about you :-) The shape of your lips, the dimples when you smile, the way your hair falls on your neck; all the little details that make you the beautiful woman he fell in love with. And if you just can't see it, let me show you!

So many women get absorbed with being a mother, that they forget about themselves. I think that's the main reason women have a hard time believing when they're told they're beautiful. They don't believe the sensual, alluring woman she was before her babies arrived is still part of who she is.

Inspired by my gorgeous clients, I am happy to introduce the INTRIGUE session. A short and sweet session to showcase your natural beauty. This is available for a limited time only, so if you're interested, please contact me for more details.

I hope you have a fabulous Valentine's day and that you take me up on my challenge ;-)
